The Parkmoor

When Verne and I first moved to St. Louis we had an apartment with in a few miles of this place. We fell in love with it the first time we walked in. The decor was right out the past, 50's style bamboo wall paper, fixtures so insanely out of date and tacky that they were perfect, beige, loads of orange and off color copper filled the interior.

Service was actually pretty good at times and the food was better than any chain breakfast place. It closed ten years ago and I still miss it. I would have loved to make it a family breakfast tradition.



I could not find any interior pics but this image of the door handle should give you an idea of style.







So here's my ode to The Parkmoor. Triptych - three 8x24 panels.
